Judith Ann Clary

It is with great sadness and heavy hearts that we announce the death of Judith Ann Clary, 64, of Owensboro, Kentucky, who passed away on July 29, 2026, at Norton Hospital in Louisville, Kentucky. Born in Henderson, Kentucky on November 7, 1961, Judith later made her home in Owensboro with her forever partner, Mike Clary. They shared 19 years together before marrying on December 1, 2023.

A dedicated employee, Judith, retired from Pepsi-Cola December 2023 after 25 years at both Owensboro and Evansville locations. She enjoyed traveling and especially vacationing on the Gulf, cheering on the St. Louis Cardinals, and preparing, organizing, and hosting family gatherings and holiday meals.

Judith loved to cook and treasured bringing her loved ones together and creating special memories with them. For relaxation, she could often be found by the pool with a "white can" in hand.

Judith lived proudly and passionately and was always there when her family and friends needed her most. Of all the roles she held in life, however, her favorite was being "Grandma." She took great pride in her seven grandchildren, Aiden, Caleb, Peyton, Andrew, Carman, Max, and Hendrix. She was incredibly proud of them, loved shopping for them, attending their sporting events, and always cared for them in that special way only a grandmother can.

She was preceded in death by her father, Eldon Thomason, and her brother, Clayton Thomason.

Judith's memory will be cherished by all who knew and loved her.

Judith is survived by her husband, Mike Clary of Owensboro; her mother, Ruth Thomason of Henderson; daughter, Marissa Baker (Chase) of Henderson; stepdaughter, Danielle Clary (Gary Wood) of Owensboro; stepson, Aaron Clary (Sarah) of Henderson; seven grandchildren; nephew, Ryan Thomason (Brittany) of Henderson; and two great-nieces, Adaline and Evie.

The funeral service will be 10:00 a.m. Tuesday at Glenn Funeral Home and Crematory. Visitation will be 2:00 p.m. – 7:00 p.m. Monday, and after 9:00 a.m. Tuesday at the funeral home. Burial will be at Scherer Cemetery.

In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to Susan G. Komen in honor of Judith's 27-year journey as a breast cancer survivor.
